In the Luhansk region, Ukrainian Defense Forces successfully targeted the operators of a Russian Supercam reconnaissance drone. The Ukrainian UAV from the 15th Separate Artillery Reconnaissance Brigade Black Forest tracked the Russian drone and waited for the moment when the operators approached it. The strike, adjusted by the Ukrainian drone, destroyed the Russian drone and resulted in the death of some of its operators. The incident occurred near the village of Varvarivka in the Luhansk region, where the Russians had launched the Supercam S350 drone for aerial photography and remote monitoring of the area and facilities.

The area is protected by Russian air defense systems, which made unsuccessful attempts to shoot down a Ukrainian UAV. The Russian drone had a flight duration of 4.5 hours and a data transmission range of up to 70-100 km, making it suitable for surveillance and reconnaissance purposes. This is not the first time that operators of such a drone have been killed, as in 2023, the Ukrainian military neutralized the crew of a Russian Supercam S350 drone in the Zaporizhzhia region.
